[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 273679, member: 1550"] We WANT to keep renting for now. And we have a good record on payment. Landlords don't expect tenants to have good credit. That hasn't really been an issue. And this house is fantastic!!! Not sure we want to get a mortgage anymore at our ages. If we inherit money, maybe we'll buy something, cash down-- --there is a beautiful park near where we live and they do drug checks and child abuse checks before allowing anyone to buy there. Nice community--well kept up. But I have a yen for an RV so we can travel. I won't feel bad about not paying the slumlords, as they are known here as lying &%$# or the Catholic School. Not sure why THEY decided to suddenly decide we had to pay, but they aren't getting paid. And we have been very careful about our credit since then. We will get an secured credit card and build credit slowly and pay all our bills on time. As for car loans, I don't think we'll ever need one. We always buy ten year old cars. I don't care about new, fancy cars. As long as they run, I'm good :happy:. Again, it's those in the middle, who make too much to get help but don't make enough to, say, buy health insurance, that I feel sorry for. We can actually make it because we can get help. But those in the middle can't. And they suffer the most. Sadly, we try hard NOT to make more because we don't want to lose our health insurance that we'd never be able to afford if we made to much to be kicked off of Medicaid. It's called "playing the game." I never thought I'd do it, but ya gotta survive. And it's not easy. [/QUOTE]
